For drama I have to say Aeris from Final Fantasy VII. I did not see that coming. I was getting ready to throw the controller to the ground.
For glory I would have to say Sephiroth. Watching him die after all he put your threw after seeing Omnislash for the first time when you were getting ready for what you thought would be the hardest boss of the game.
Hellscream's was definitely up there. Faced his demonic lethargy, killed his adversary with a single blow of his axe. Freed his entire race.

Poor Yunie 🙁
They don't die....either you've not completed the game or you just totally missed what was going on in the ending.
Spoiler:
Though technically Auron was dead during the entire game as he was killed 10 years before while fighting Yunalesca, when he and Jecht were Braska's guardians.

Play FF X2 for a happy ending.
That kinda screws up the ending of FFX, as far as Tidus is concerned.
Sofia's death in Xenogears was dramatic and very important to the plot.
Teta's*chuckle* death rides the same road as Sofia's.
Same can be said about Zack's...
However IMO the best death in VG is Aerith's. It was dramatic; had perfect timing; the main bad guy got rid of her right before the protagonist and it set the tone for the rest of FFVII.
